As it has every year since US News and World Report began ranking Master of Fine Arts programs, the ceramic art program in the School of Art & Design, New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, ranked top in the nation.

This year, for the second year, Alfred’s MFA in glass art ranked second in the nation, tied with the program at Rochester Institute of Technology. Overall, Alfred’s MFA program is 10th in the nation.

“Our MFA program rankings are a continuing testament to the fine quality of our faculty, students, alumni and decanal leadership,” said Provost Suzanne Buckley.
